Age ≥ 18 years

Disqualifiers

Prior partial or complete hysterectomy

Current pregnancy

Prior pelvic or vaginal radiotherapy

Chemotherapy within past 5 years (except tamoxifen)

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Collection of clinically characterized vaginal fluid specimens

Vaginal fluid specimens will be collected during a standard clinical exam using a swab-based collection method. Specimens will be used for research purposes to support the development of biomarker assays. No specific biomarkers or analytical methods are defined as part of this study.

Time frame
Within 90 days of enrollment.
2

Clinical data for biomarker assay development and evaluation

Clinical information will be collected as part of routine study participation and used to describe the study population and support research analyses. Data will be used in aggregate to contextualize research findings and inform future assay development.

Time frame
Within 90 days of enrollment
3

Collection devices for detection

Specimens will be collected using swab-based collection devices intended solely for specimen collection. These devices do not provide diagnostic results and are not used for clinical decision-making.

Time frame
Within 90 days of enrollment
4

Characterization of endometrial neoplasia, other neoplasms, or underlying causes

Characterization will be based on existing clinical assessments and diagnoses obtained through standard medical care. The study does not establish diagnostic criteria or endpoints and is intended for research and development purposes only.

Time frame
Within 90 days of enrollment
